#19 is very astute. We have to deal with people where they are. And yes, most people lash out when challenged. They don’t understand that they should be seeking the truth, rather than getting their way. This problem is common with leftists.
Thank you both for your thoughtful replies,
I suppose I two motives that seem to have extremely similar challenges at their core. One, as a Christian, is to help people find Christ for themselves and the other is to show certain individuals how destructive Liberal/Progressive policies are to a persons freedom.
I would like to continue our discussion since it seems at least we have a common understanding.
Overcoming the obstacles presented by our secular institutions, in my opinion, can only happen by either going around them or undermining their efforts. A great deal of forethought and creativeness may be required to craft, not so much a message, but an approach. I have some ideas that we can work on if you’re interested.
The one thing I’m certain of,you must know your audience and create an environment for a substantive discussion to begin. From this point it’s a matter of guiding someone to the logical conclusion. I hate to say it but, the process is a classic sales technique.
My goal would be to actually put together a manual or guide for people to follow when approaching people.
I would really like feedback and some insight as well.
